Steve,

It's kinda like one of those joke programs where you try to click the answer to the question but the button keeps moving away from your mouse *grin*. It only does it editing code in a form or a visual class for me (not in MODI COMM).

BTW, to find your cursor position again, just press an arrow key and your will be back where you started (well, at least within one arrow key postion).
